The Long Twilight @thelongtwilight - Tumblr Blog

What is The Long Twilight?

A story largely focused around the titular band The Long Twilight, an internationally famous pop-punk group in modern-day Hyrule composed of Hylians who have no idea that they're descendants of different iterations of the Hero's Spirit.

Most of the story takes place in New Castletown, Hyrule's capital city. A predominantly Hylian continent, Hyrule is often considered the center of the world by its denizens and those related to the royal family, but it's by no means the only noteworthy place. The different races and factions have various relationships with one another—some better than others.

But what is this story, really?

A self-indulgent M/M OC-fest with a lot of LoZ-based worldbuilding, mostly. Some modern-day characters align closely with my headcanons for their canon counterparts; others have deviated significantly, becoming more their own people over time, but the lore remains. Not everyone is a Link, all named characters are based on some LoZ character, but the Links are largely the most important ones. This was originally a shared project but the other party has moved on and I'm unwilling to let my hard work and passion go to waste, so here we are.

Then what is this blog?

Ask blog, lore blog, art blog, whatever it needs to be. I would love to engage with other people on this world and these characters are everything to me. It's equal parts a love letter to the LoZ series and just a very fun exploration of many different kinds of characters. Dark themes and ships ahoy, but I'll probably be keeping the severe stuff off of Tumblr. My main is @prismatoxic and I do actually post about LoZ itself from time to time (and have some Linkcest fics in the works), so if that's your bag feel free to check it out.

#luke is easy to find songs for. tyler is not.#damien is literally just my favorite though #every song can be about your baby boy if you believe

thinking again about vampirism as disability

apolloendymion

what if you slept all day and woke at night, lonely and frustrated. what if you couldn't go to social events, or even mundane public spaces like stores. what if you couldn't see the sun. what if you couldn't go to the pool, or the beach, or the creek. what if you couldn't eat what everyone else is eating. what if you couldn't eat at all. what if your basic needs came at the cost of your loved ones' quality of life. what if you became agitated, confused, maybe even violent if your needs weren't met. what if people blamed your behavior on demons, or worse, your own inherent evil. what if people saw you as a threat to your own community. what if the default response to your suffering was either indifference or violence. what if people thought you were better off dead, that you no longer count as human, that they're doing you a favor by letting you disappear. what if people assumed you must somehow deserve all of this. what about that.

#damien #he's not a vampire but he Looks Like One and is disabled so

best comeback story of the century: after three years of radio silence and a band breakup that largely went unaddressed by management, luke miller rose like a phoenix from the ashes to reclaim his place in pop culture and in the band he'd helped make (though he and will are splitting custody of the drums).

he's also in a relationship with the lead singer now. don't worry about it.

#oc: luke miller #the long twilight art

made the gang in tomodachi life, obviously, things mostly going well. then trick broke up with damien. i told him not to and he did anyway, the bastard. so they both became depressed

tyler was unable to cheer damien up, but when i saw that was a thing that could be done, i was like, okay, let's try luke instead. luke is better at getting through to damien.

and luke did get through to him. one of the things he said to do so was this

and like. listen. i get it. the mii was probably picking a verb, as in like, "let me see your winning face!!" or something, you know. i understand that this is not some wild code-break.

but the fact that THIS was what he said. that luke miller would absolutely, 100% say "i wanna see your fucking face, d" while trying to get damien to look at him.

effervescent. no notes.

#oc: luke miller #oc: damien owen #i'll share more tlltd stuff later bc they have sure gotten up to a lot #still trying to get trick and damien to talk to each other again #luke and tyler got married though.#all four of them live together #i was in fact shocked when he said this. i was in a call #and i was like “holy shit. hold on” and had to explain what i just saw #because it's SO???#luke leaning over and saying “i wanna see your fucking face” when damien is refusing to let him in is so #it's sooooo luke that is exactly how he'd handle this. AND IT WORKED

world's most punchable face

I am obsessed with fictional guys being really weird about each other. Hard at work in the plausible deniability mines. You know those pairings who would jerk each other off before they'd kiss

#tyluke #and also #damiluke #luke's just Like That and the twins are helpless

a million years later, i have returned to the height chart redraw to add mr. themanthemyththelegend luke miller himself. i also fixed up tyler and damien since i was last working on this months ago

his original design did eventually incorporate a tattoo sleeve, which makes sense for him to have, but whether or not i'll ever add it is a different question. it's safe to assume both him and damien have more tattoos than just the triforces, i just hate designing tattoos

and shirtless version, of course
